  is one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures in the UK, with over 10,000 procedures carried out in 2019 alone. Many women often hesitate to take the next step as they may be fearful of the potential pain associated with the procedure. When women have their consultation at the Centre for Surgery, one of the most common questions is, "Is breast augmentation painful?". We can understand why women may be concerned about this. No one wants to be in severe pain after a planned cosmetic procedure designed to improve the appearance of the breasts and boost self-confidence.

  
  

  Breast is considered a major surgery because it is an invasive procedure involving incisions. The requirement for surgical incisions and tissue dissection means that an anaesthetic will be required to ensure your comfort. General anaesthesia is the most common type of anaesthetic used for breast augmentation surgery. Sometimes, IV sedation combined with a local anaesthetic may be used.

  
  

  Our specialist cosmetic surgeons have many years of experience and utilise advanced surgical techniques, which help to minimise any pain or discomfort after breast augmentation surgery. The vast majority of patients who have had surgery with us tell us they experienced very little pain and recovered quickly, which enabled them to start enjoying their breast augmentation results straight away.

  
  

  
  Does breast augmentation hurt?
  

  
  

  Breast augmentation is not as painful and uncomfortable as most people believe. As with any surgical procedure, there is always a minor discomfort associated with making surgical incisions. The most common incision used for breast augmentation is the inframammary incision, which is positioned in the inferior breast crease and is no more than 5 cm long on each side. The surgeon will need to dissect a breast pocket, which may be positioned either on top of the chest wall muscle or beneath it. The breast tissue and fat will be gently separated from the pectoralis muscle during the surgery using cautery. This process often results in minor inflammatory changes, by bruising and swelling after the .

  
  

  Fortunately, these are well-known breast augmentation side effects and are to be expected after any breast implant procedure. Having these symptoms means the body is actively healing after surgery to achieve the best results.

  
  

  
  What does a breast augmentation feel like?
  

  
  

  Every patient has a different level of to pain, and the patients will feel after breast augmentation will differ between patients. Every procedure involves a series of slightly different steps. Some patients who choose to have larger breast implants may more tightness and potential discomfort than those who prefer smaller implants. In most cases, typically experience mild soreness after the procedure and do not describe it as painful. Some areas may feel sore than others, but most patients will generally localise the discomfort to the whole breast area.

  
  

  A feeling of tightness in the breasts is familiar after surgery. Some may describe a pulling or stretching sensation due to the tightness caused by the breast implants. The breasts themselves may feel firm to the touch and have a smooth-looking from the stretched-out skin. The initial firmness will soften over time, and any tightness will improve over the first two weeks after surgery.

  
  

  Some patients may describe a shooting with radiating discomfort after breast augmentation, which is entirely normal. Most patients will describe shooting sensations after having breast implants. The take up to a few months to resolve and will become less intense over the first four weeks after surgery. If you find you are still having sharp shooting pains affecting your for months after surgery, please discuss this with your surgeon.

  
  

  
  How long does the pain last after breast augmentation?
  

  
  

  Most discomfort after breast augmentation is felt during the first 48 to 72 hours after the procedure. After this period, you should feel much more comfortable with less reliance on prescription painkillers.

  
  

  Breast augmentation complications are rare as long as you fully follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions. If you suddenly develop severe, sharp pain in one or both after surgery, you should contact our post-operative support team immediately. We may call you for a clinical assessment to ensure your breasts are healing as they should. At any point during your breast augmentation recovery, you develop severe and sharp pain that does not go away with rest or painkillers; this may be a sign of a potential complication.

  How painful is breast augmentation under the muscle?
  

  
  

  In some types of breast augmentation, the surgeon may recommend placing breast implants underneath the chest muscle. The recovery period for this type of surgery is longer than for breast implants placed on top of the muscle. This is because the surgeon will need to make an in the muscle in addition to the breast tissue. Implants placed under the muscle may result in patients having a slightly more uncomfortable recovery. Choosing to place breast implants under the muscle is done to create a more natural-looking appearance. Breast implants under the muscle are most commonly recommended for patients with very little breast tissue and minimal soft tissue coverage.

  
  

  
  When does the pain stop after breast augmentation?
  

  
  

  Most patients minor discomfort after the procedure, which is most commonly felt during the first 3 to 5 days following the procedure. After this period, pain after breast augmentation gets significantly better, with most patients having no pain after four weeks. If you develop severe and sharp pain that is continuous, you should get in contact with us straight away for a clinical assessment to make sure you are healing correctly.

  
  

  
  What is the best sleeping position after breast augmentation?
  

  
  

  We recommend lying on your back with the other half of your body mildly elevated. Sleeping on your side or front is not recommended after surgery to the risk of implant malposition. It is normal to experience minor discomfort during the first few days after surgery, which may interrupt your sleep. This will settle down after a few days. If pain consistently interrupts your sleep after one week, please get in touch with us to arrange a face-to-face clinical assessment.
